dmesg

If I boot Factory the monitor shows a scrambled screen as soon as KMS takes over. But the system doesn't crash since the mouse is moveable as a scrambled field.

If I boot Factory with nomodeset X works fine even with desktop effects.

According to dmesg a firwmare file is missing:
r600_cp: Failed to load firmware "radeon/R600_rlc.bin"

So either the firmware is missing or the KMS driver has the wrong name.
